Sonatest angle beam probes are designed for weld inspection and flaw location where shear-wave or refracted-wave inspection is required. They are widely used for butt welds, fillet welds and structural weld integrity testing.

High-performance shear-wave probes paired with replaceable wedges to inspect welded joints. Available in multiple angles, frequencies and element sizes. Provide strong near-surface resolution and excellent flaw detection capability.

• Weld inspection (butt, T-joint, fillet)

• Crack detection

• Heat-affected zone evaluation

• Pipeline & refinery weld testing

• Structural weld QC

• Power generation & pressure vessel inspections

• Typical Probe Sizes: 8–12 mm element size (varies by model)

•  Common wedge angles: 45°, 60°, 70°

• Replaceable wedges (stainless, Rexolite, high-temp options)

• Strong near-surface resolution

• Lemo/BNC connectors

• Suitable for AWS/ASME weld inspection procedures
